Well, after a perfectly normal night on Tuesday, out of the blue on Wednesday Hermy took ill. We took her to the vet, and they only confirmed what we already knew: that the end was neigh. So we did the responsible thing and brought the end to her. Hermy outwitted, outlasted, and outsurvived three other kitties who left on our western odyssey all those years ago (mr. Mestopholes, Chrissy & Dippy) & was the only feline to return to Buffalo with us. She was 14-ish and she had a good life and it got to see/travel a great deal of this country and that to the north. Not that she wanted to, necessarily, but she did. The Hermy deathwatch came to an abrupt end. It took about 90 seconds before Kat raised the kitten issue.....

So… As Dan put it we mourned yesterday. And today we got kittens!! They are both girls and are siblings, just 10 weeks old. No names yet. We await inspiration. But they are cute!!!
